The Weekend Warrior looks at the upcoming weekend.
  • Ice Age 2 is the first major movie event of the year, and the Warrior thinks it will open huge, at $50 million
  • The studios will be thrilled if his numbers are close. The top twelve would add up to $121 million. The best weekend of the year so far has been $111 million.
  • His numbers would mean about a 25% increase over last year. No previous weekend in 2006 has been more than 13% higher than the corresponding 2005 weekend.
  • He doesn't have much enthusiasm for Basic Instinct 2. I agree. I'm curious about the movie but I know there was a lot deleted to get an R, and I view this as something of a rip-off, so I'm going to wait for the DVD and see the whole magilla.
